Configuring nginx to serve multiples subdomains on Gitlab dropplet

Hi

gitlab installer is using chef recipe to provision ngnix. You can modify those recipies as is described here:

The GitLab one-click image uses GitLab’s “omnibus” installer. It’s designed to run in a self contained manner and installs it own libraries including Nginx under <code>/opt</code>. So you might be better off installing GitLab yourself on a clean droplet:

Hi Leto,

I’ll do my best to help you but first I just need to know some more information. Why are you unable to use the standard sites-available/sites-enabled(sites-enabled is just system links to sites available btw)

You can setup a server block like this in whatever configuration file you are using to allow another domain <pre> server { listen 80 default_server; listen [::]:80 default_server ipv6only=on;

root /usr/share/nginx/html;
index index.html index.htm;

server_name localhost;

location / {
    try_files $uri $uri/ =404;
}

} </pre> Hope this helps…
